I feel your pain guys, my thoughts are this: If you remember the article or not, it was said there would be no patches this year for madden, so what does that tell you? They had extreme confidence in thier product to be bug free. What does that tell us?

1. the reason its taking so dang long is because they may be a little surprised by the bugs and having that extra time because of the late release this year they had thought they would of caught everything. So its taking some real digging to uncover the problem with these bugs that they thought would not be there.

2. This generation of Maddens codeing, gaming system, timeline, whatever other 100 excuses you can think of are so unstable that they have to spend just as much time tracking down bugs as they do adding and improving features. I dont blame the current devs nearly as much as I blame the original ones who wrote the foundationary code for this game.

Just a thought obviously from someone who doesnt know the ins and outs of making a game, but theres things there that are easy to make assumptions about.

EA just boggles the mind sometimes. How hard is it to announce what is going into a patch already in development (surely). These are easy, easy wins EA - dead simple things to keep people happy and produce some free confidence, and yet they can't even get this right. Whether they are trying really hard to make big improvements to M12 with patches or are only investing a small amount of energy in them, at least portray a sense of high activity and interest. EA come off like they couldn't care less.

Of course it's already in development, but we're still not going to get patch details until the patch is approved or actually releases. The same goes for the vast majority of games. Developers don't want to be stuck in a situation where they comment that they're working on something and it falls through at the end. That would be worse PR than the (currently) five business days of silence since word of the patch came out.

Of course it matters. 2K is BASKETBALL...I for one have zero interest in the NBA, or in playing the game. Gimme some football, and bring on the patch
